transport orders followed by an agv or operator

Hello, for several days I've been trying to develop a transport model that follows a list of transport orders to be carried out. To do this, I'm using process flows and global tables to write my TOs (transport orders).

I'm stuck, do you have any ideas on how to do this?

my idea is to :
make a global table with ot. Here are the characteristics of my TOs:
- quantity (quantity of product to take)
- productToLoad (example box with label id==1)
- destination (queue where the transporter must place the product)
- source (queue where the transporter must place the product)

but every time I want to do a load (using process flow) parameter 1 is always NULL.
do you know how to set this?

Parameter 1 should be a reference to the item that should be loaded. In most cases you would get the reference either by using a "Find Item" activity (if the items are stored in racks or floor storages) or by pulling them off a list that contains the available items.
